Pride is cold comfort to the lonely man But I'm not alone, I do the best I can To hold onto my ego It's tenuous in the best of times And I got lost down 25 I just want to arrive A head in the clouds can take its toll on a man The thinning air, the beauty all around Not close enough to touch It might be too much For heart as faint as mine Give me a sign What do I know? The path just goes where it wants to go And who can I see About these idle hands at the heart of me? What do I know? In God we trust you just get one time around What kind of fool who hadn't hit the ground Would lie down and surrender? I think I'd find some comfort there But damn torpedoes, I don't care All is fair What do I know? The path just goes where it wants to go And who can I see About these idle hands at the heart of me? What do I know? Wealth is wasted on the wicked and wise Save the consolation prize Don't want to work on my disguise Thinly veiled pain, a funeral smile
